Radar tells me their closing speed, if they are slowing and how far away. Then I decide to say a prayer. The change of light pattern is incidental.

No, that's very doubtful while proper testing would be fully destructive.

Likely to be 2nd degree murder charge due to leaving the person to die (intent), hope that sticks.
UK justice system take note!!!
I would naively expect the police to do the detective work rather than the public. At least they caught the scumbag though - now they just need to lock him up and throw away the key!
Do you really believe it would be practical to run a team in a police department dedicated to identifying obscure car parts?
If they suspect anyone has been run over by a mk2 golf I could help.
Why - who did you run over ?
It's got to be a great outcome to the investigation. It's clearly ludicrous to expert the police to be experts on all cars - and to put it out on the web makes a lot of sense. As this proves.
They can anything on CSI, I'm with the op on this.
If it were CSI they'd not only recognise the part, they'd have a purpose-written software suite dedicated exclusively to car part recognition, complete with an entirely unnecessary and incredibly-elaborate virtual-reality user-interface in which you wandered around a fully rendered 3d car-part store while parts leapt off the shelf and compared themselves to the part you were holding.
Our cops are clearly in the stone-age compared with the Yanks. Though at least they are much less likely to shoot you for no reason, so its swings-and-roundabouts.
Be a bit of a shit show, this new breed of cop show.
Cop A: Alright Bob.
Cop B: Alright Dave! What've you got there?
Cop A: It's that frangment we found at the scene.
Cop B: Christ! I can hardly see it, stick it on Twitter while I stick the kettle on.
Cop A: good thinking Bob.
Cop B: nice cuppa, Dave.
Cop A: Cheers Bob.
Cop B: Hey Dave we've got a hit, it was that shifty looking bloke!
Cop A: Book him Danno.
Cop B: But my name's Bob and 'e's nicked!
More exciting shite at the same time next week.
